Re: [IRCA] KOHI to move antenna
Moving KOHI --- to just about any no location is a "Downgrade". And moving to a County Fair Grounds could even make coverage worse. 1400 in John Day, Oregon suffers from a poor ground system. The AM site is near a parking area at the Grant County Fairgrounds. Having a paved road over your ground radials is not a good thing. Even the old KAYO 1150 in Seattle gave up using a ground system -- because it was of little use in coverage. Most likely any relocation might require some power reduction to KOHI as well. I say -- stay where they are. Moving is a downgrade. The FCC could grant a CP in 3 to 4 months. Maybe 180 days. Un-Blocked applications are moving fast. It still will require an OK from Canada. 6 months is my bet.
